Product Spotlight *Amy Tangerine*

This week a few of my PI buddies joined me to show off the fun summery colours and patterns of Amy Tangerine's new Rise & Shine collection. You'll notice a theme in how similarly we all thought this collection would be best used.

Meaghan created a gorgeous sunburst out of the Ella patterned paper for this beautiful layout.

Orange chose a pie chart design, set against the Rachel patterned paper, to showcase these playful photos of her sweet girl.

Isn't it so cool, how she managed to even cut her photos to fit into the pie chart? And the way her journaling circles the chart is perfect.

Michelle was also prompted to create a sunburst to use as many of the patterned papers as possible.

I love the way she broke out of the usual sunburst design though, and really added some visual interest to her page, by changing up the length of each sun ray. And her title was the same, but using the black foam sentiment stickers.

When I set all the papers from the collection out on my desk I instantly had the same thought as Orange did, thinking that a pie chart would allow me to show off numerous fun designs all at the same time. I toned down the contrast in my photograph, and used the Chloe woodgrain background to help the colours in the collection pop.

I created templates of my pie charts to make it easier to replicate this design in the future and added some machine stitching for texture.

And then Danielle knocked the whole collection out of the park by creating this amazing mini album documenting her last trip to the happiest place on earth. This is just a portion of the album, you can see more of it on her blog here.

I just love that each of us wanted to use several patterns all on one project, such a great collection, with fun patterns to work with.
